Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Assurance

Olivia’s POV

I had to tell them. I couldn’t keep swallowing it down, pretending like I was fine, pretending like what happened didn’t still haunt me every single day.

"I know," I whispered, my voice trembling. "I know we were supposed to leave everything behind. To move forward. To heal. But I can’t. Not fully."

Their eyes stayed on me, heavy and piercing, but I pressed on, because if I stopped, I’d break.

"Even knowing you were spelled... even knowing it wasn’t your fault—I still can’t cope with it sometimes. I still get... triggered. Every time I see another woman close to you, every time one of you smiles or lets someone touch you..." My throat closed, my wolf whimpering inside me. "It’s like I’m right back there. Like I’m about to live that trauma all over again."

I wrapped my arms around myself, holding in the ache that clawed through me. "I’m scared," I admitted, my voice cracking. "I’m so scared of losing you. And that fear—it’s eating me alive. It’s making me jealous, bitter, insane. And I hate it, because I hate who it makes me. But I can’t stop."

Silence hung in the air, and through the bond, I felt their emotions full of pain, love, and worry. Levi was the first to move.

His arms wrapped around me gently, pulling me into his chest. The warmth of him, the steady beat of his heart, made my wolf exhale shakily.

"Liv," he whispered into my hair, his voice breaking with love, "that will never happen again. I swear it. You’ll never lose us like that. You’ll never have to relive that pain."

I shook against him, my fingers clutching the fabric of his shirt. "I know... I know you say that. But I’m still scared."

His hand rubbed slow circles down my back, comforting me. "Then let us carry that fear with you. Don’t hold it alone. We love you so much, Olivia. We’ll spend the rest of our lives proving that to you."

Before I could answer, another warmth closed around me. Lennox. His presence was overwhelming and strong, like a wall shielding me from everything else.

He pulled me into his arms, cupping my cheek with one rough hand. His thumb brushed away a tear that had escaped, and his eyes—goodness, those eyes—burned straight into me.

"We cannot be spelled again," he said firmly, his voice calm and unshakable. "We’re Alphas now. No witchcraft, no spell, no trick can touch us. That mistake only happened because we weren’t yet what we are today. And it will never happen again."

His hand pressed tighter to my cheek, his forehead almost touching mine. "I love you, Olivia. So much. Sometimes I wish you could see my heart—just so you’d know there’s no space in it for anyone else but you."

The truth of his words hit me like a wave. I couldn’t see his heart, but gods...I could feel it. His love. It was real, deep, burning through me until I couldn’t breathe.

And then Louis’s arms slipped around me from behind, pulling me fully into the safety of all three of them. His lips brushed the top of my head, his voice low and fierce.

"You’re ours. Always. No spell, no woman, no mistake will ever change that. We’ll fight for you until our last breath."

Surrounded. Shielded. Loved.

For the first time, the fear inside me loosened, just a little.

And me? I wanted to rip it off its hinges.

The door creaked open before anyone could answer the knock. Selene stepped in, her eyes sweeping the room, and that little smirk I already hated tugged at her lips.

"Hope I’m not interrupting," she said sweetly, though her tone dripped with anything but innocence.

"You are," I snapped, my frown deepening as I glared at her.

Her eyes flicked to me, and she rolled them like I was nothing but a child throwing a tantrum. My wolf growled inside me, but before I could lunge, she turned her attention away from me completely—straight to the triplets.

"I just got some information," she announced, her voice suddenly serious.

The shift in her tone made Lennox stiffen, Louis’s hand drop from my waist, and Levi’s posture straighten instantly.

I hated it.

I hated the way she commanded their attention in seconds.
